SemaConnect Unveils New Cable Management System

ChargePro 620 electric vehicle charging stations make it easier for users by eliminating the need to stow charging cord after charging.

SemaConnect, Inc. announced that its ChargePro 620 electric vehicle charging stations are now available with cable management systems. The system makes it convenient and easy for station owners and electric vehicle drivers to charge their vehicles without having the added task of having to loop and stow the cord back. The system is available for both single and dual pedestal stations.

“One concern we have heard from electric vehicle owners is that they don’t like having to place the cord on the rack after charging,” said Mark Pastrone, VP of Business Development at SemaConnect. “We’ve listened to EV users and have designed the cable management-system to make their electric vehicle charging experience simple and fast. This solution is positive for both property managers and EV drivers because not only does it make the process easier, but it also is designed to keep charging station cables clean and organized for Class A properties.”

The system allows drivers to easily extend the cable to the length required for their vehicle’s charge port. The lanyard supports the charge cable to keep it above the parking lot surface at all times. When the charging session is complete the driver simply returns the plug to the head unit housing and the cable automatically retracts to a clean organized loop.

SemaConnect’s networked electric vehicle charging stations and web-based management software makes it easy for station owners to deploy at their properties. The stations are sophisticated networked Level II (240Volts, 30Amps) commercial grade and comes bundled with SemaCharge, a web-based management software that station owners can:

For EV drivers, SemaConnect has an iPhone and Android smart phone app that allows them to manage their charging sessions, search for more stations, and to manage their account. SemaConnect has also partnered with Recargo on their PlugShare app, the most widely used application for electric vehicle drivers, which allows them to start a charging session right from the PlugShare app for more convenience.
